Song Jihyo is appearing on the MBCTV drama Kyebaeck and SBSTV’s Running Man and is beloved among the students and the youth due the honest and diligent image.

Lee Juho, the minister, had high anticipations: “JYJ and Song Jihyo who have been appointed as the online ambassadors are very active in their own fields and have much interest in educational giving and is popular among the youth and the students and so their appointment will be a great help in adding vitality to the communication between the Ministry and the youth.”
